My friend had a audio cd of Raja's live performance. It had instrumental version of this song. I got hooked to the music when I heard it for the first time. At that time, I didn't know which song or movie this instrumental was taken from. I was searching for song and movie of the instrumental for more than a year. Last year I learned about this song in a blog. Raja has used the same tune for songs in Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu. I liked the Telugu version than others.

Song Picturisation is an art not comes to everyone.Even the biggies KB,Bharathiraja(Two sunflowers touching each other,clapping hands LOL) limps a lot while picturising the Raja's Classics.Other than Maniratnam no body is comfortable with song picturisation in Tamil Cinema(To some extent Bala and balumahendra since their movies wont have much duets or any usual songs they had a great escape unlike bhrathiraja and KB)

Almost 80% of Raja's songs are strangled to the core in picturisation.Its better to enjoy the songs in audio...accidentally if u had seen the picturisation,there might be a chance in hating the song there after...:-)
